New Article on Bioluminescence
Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light within a living organism in the form of chemiluminescence.
Bioluminescence Occurs in:
Marine vertebrates/invertebrates
Microorganisms, such as fungi and bacteria
Terrestrial arthropods(invertebrate and exoskeleton animal), such as fireflies
The chemical reaction that results in bioluminescence requires two unique chemicals: luciferin and either luciferase or photoprotein. Luciferin is the compound that actually produces light. In a chemical reaction, luciferin is called the substrate. The bioluminescent color is a result of the arrangement of luciferin molecules.
